About the book:

Jill Gardner, proprietor of Coffee, Books, and More, has discovered that the old stone wall on her property might be a centuries-old mission worthy of being declared a landmark. But Craig Morgan, the obnoxious owner of South Cove’s most popular tourist spot, The Castle, makes it his business to contest her claim. When Morgan is found murdered at The Castle shortly after a heated argument with Jill, even her detective boyfriend has to ask her for an alibi. Jill decides she must find the real murderer to clear her name. But when the killer comes for her, she’ll need to jump from historic preservation to self-preservation ...

Interview with Lynn Cahoon

Do you have another job outside of writing?

Yes. In the day job, I’m a cube-dwelling administrative powerhouse working in the transportation field. Great benefits including insurance and employer match into a 401K. Being an adult now, I think of those things.

Which character did you most enjoy writing?

Actually, it’s Sadie Michaels. She knows her path in life, has a strong faith, is raising a son on her own, and in one of the future books, I’m so totally going to mess with her life.

Are you like any of your characters?

I’m like a lot of my characters. I wanted to be an attorney (Jill actually was). I want to travel the world (like Aunt Jackie did). I guess like any author, we leave a piece of us in all our characters.

What book are you currently reading and in what format (e-book/paperback/hardcover)?
